markets are stable when there are no informal securities
formalization produces stable interest rates set by supply and demand at every term

in fact ( as we’ll see )
if all informal securities were suddenly cancelled, First World finance would instantly implode.
this does not mean that informal securities are vitamins
they are not vitamins. they are more like addictive drugs
getting off these drugs will be dangerous and difficult
what is this strange financial system we have?
boomer finance
